After robbing a strip club, three desperate teenage girls lead a misogynistic Federal Agent on a lysergic cross-country chase, scoring a duffle bag full of money, drugs, and a crew of willing kidnapees along the way.
“Bickel has constructed a film that is an ultra-violent, profane, exploitation homage in the finest tradition of Russ Meyer. Yet, for all the low-brow blood, guts, and boobs, Bad Girls still preserves the essential filmic elements that make it relatable […] In the madness, there are moments of genuine heart and soul.” Film Threat
“Just like The Theta Girl, Bad Girls is a loving tribute to female lead exploitation films like Thriller, Coffy, Sugar Hill and even more modern releases like Streets of Vengeance. It’s character-driven, bloody, funny, and paced very well.” Horror Society
Influenced by the film scores of 70's exploitation and Italian crime films, I opted to write a band-centered score. My sound palette reflected that with acoustic drums, bass guitar, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, flute, percussion (tubular bells, timpani, bongos, roto-toms, shakers, claves, etc), music box, keyboards (grand piano, Clavinet, Wurlitzer electric piano, Mellotron, Farfisa organ, Solina strings) and electronics (Mini-Moog, Roland Jupiter 8, ARP Quadra, Linn Drum).
